CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED PATENT APPLICATION

This application is a continuation-in-part application of U.S. application Ser. No. 17/320,254, filed on May 14, 2021, which application is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

The present disclosure relates to a fencing assembly.

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

In modern society, it is common to use fences in buildings. A conventional fence is used for encompassing a certain area and isolating the area from others. A fence is often installed in a school campus, a construction site, a private area or a house to encompass and protect the area, and prevent invasion and restrict access.

Common fences on the market are usually sold as a whole set. A set of fences is usually composed of two upper and lower horizontal rails and a plurality of vertical balusters at a spaced interval and soldered with the rails. However, this whole set of fence makes it difficult to customize and transport. When the length of the whole set of fences is too long, it is usually troublesome in transportation and the cost is greatly increased. In addition, in modern life, it is very common to freely design and match the color of the fence. Since the welding and baking paint to the fence are completed in the manufacturing, the color of the rails and the balusters cannot be easily changed, so that the result would not meet the user's expectation, and also affect the aesthetic considerations.

Therefore, there is a need to improve the above-mentioned problems, and to effectively reduce the trouble and cost of customized fences, as well as enhance ‘consumers’ desire to purchase.

SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE

The main purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a fencing assembly, by virtue of a plurality of holes on the surface of the rail, and a plurality of positioning assembly on the bottom surface of the rail corresponding to the hole, the user can easily and directly insert one end of the baluster into the hole, and the baluster is engaged with the rail, so that a detachable fence is provide.

In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose and effect, the present disclosure provides a fencing assembly, which includes two rails, a plurality of baluster, and a plurality of positioning assembly, wherein the rail is hollow and has an assembly hole.

Further, each one of the plurality of balusters is hollow and has two ends detachably mounted in the assembly hole.

Lastly, each of the plurality of positioning assemblies is disposed in the rail and detachably mounted with the baluster, so that the rail and the baluster are engaged. In which, each of the plurality of positioning assemblies has a plurality of annular stopping flange on the surface, and each of the plurality of stopping flanges has an inwardly recessed structural notch.

In operation, the user can combine several balusters and a pair of rails to form a fence structure. Due to the corresponding positioning assembly in the rail, the baluster can be stably engaged with the rails, and prevented from being easily disassembled by external force. Moreover, by virtue of the assembled structure, the fencing assembly of the present disclosure is more convenient in transportation and simpler in customized design.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 11, the present disclosure provides a fencing assembly, which includes two rails 1, a plurality of baluster 2, and a plurality of positioning assembly 3, wherein each of the rail 1 is hollow and has a assembly hole 11, the two rails 1 are used as the top and bottom limit portions of the knee.

Further, each of the plurality of balusters 2 is hollow and has two ends detachably mounted in the two rails respectively, form the knee with rails 3.

Finally, the plurality of positioning assemblies 3 are disposed in the two rails 1 and detachably mounted in the plurality of balusters 2 respectively, so as to engage the two rails 1 and the plurality of balusters 2 and form a fence. Moreover, each of the plurality of positioning assemblies 3 has a plurality of annular stopping flanges 31 on the surface, and each of the plurality of stopping flanges 31 has an inwardly recessed structural notch 311. The structural notch 311 is used to enable the stopping flanges 31 easier to be bent.

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 11, when the baluster 2 is engaged with the positioning assembly 3, the inner wall A of the baluster 2 applies pressure on part of the stopping flanges 31, so that the stopping flanges 31 abut the baluster 2, and limit the baluster 2 from disassembling.

In operation, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 11, the user can combine several balusters and a pair of rails to form a fence structure. Due to the corresponding positioning assembly in the rail, the baluster can be stably engaged with the rails, and the engagement can be prevented from being easily disassembled by external force. Moreover, by virtue of the assembled structure, the fencing assembly or the present disclosure is more convenient in transportation and simpler in customized design.

The features of each element of the present disclosure are described in further detail below. As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 11, the plurality of positioning assemblies 3 are connected with the rails 1 and detachably mounted with the balusters 2. The connection method can be welding or threadedly engaging, so that this structure allows the plurality on positioning assemblies 3 firmly connected to the interior of the rails 1.

Further, as shown in FIG. 8 to FIG. 10, the present disclosure provides the second embodiment. In the second embodiment, the plurality of positioning assemblies 3 are disposed inside and mounted with the balusters 2. In addition, the positioning assembly 3 is hollow and provided with an assembly hole 32 (a threaded insert as an example in the schematic view and a fastener 4 (a screw as an example in the schematic view) is provided to threadedly engage with the assembly hole 32, so that the positioning assembly 3 and the baluster 2 are assembled on the rail 1.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 11, the plurality of stopping flanges 31 obliquely extends toward the rail 1. The structure enables the stopping flanges 31 easier to be bent and abutted on the inner wall A of the baluster 2 when the baluster 2 is engaged with the positioning assembly 3.

Moreover, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 11, the plurality of stopping flanges are spaced apart, the diameter of each of the plurality of stopping flanges gradually decreases with the distance away from the bottom of the rail 1. With this structure, when the baluster 2 and the rail 1 are assembled, the blocking force is strong as the depth of insertion, thereby the fencing assembly of the present disclosure can be fixedly engaged.

On one hand, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 11, the diameter of the smallest stopping flange 31 of the plurality of stopping flanges 31 is smaller than or equal to the size of the opening of the baluster 2. This structure enables better positioning and alignment when the baluster 2 is assembled with the rail 1.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 11, the diameter of the biggest stopping flange 31 of the plurality of stopping flanges 31 is bigger than or equal to the size of the opening of the baluster 2. With this structure, when the baluster 2 and the rail 1 are completely assembled, the area and strength of the stopping flanges 31 abut against the inner wall A of the baluster 2 are larger, thereby the fencing assembly of the present disclosure can be fixedly engaged.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 11, which is a perspective schematic view of the positioning assembly 3 of the third embodiment of the present disclosure. In this embodiment, the positioning assembly 3 has more stopping flanges 31, so that the positioning assembly 3 can be fixedly abutted on the inner wall A of the baluster 2.
